This Is Relevant To My Interests.

Hello fellow craigslurkers and bargain hunters. I wanted to to introduce you to the marvelous work of Sara Lorimer of Lovely Listing. She and her real estate combing cronies have been collecting the most hilarious, sad, and simply mind boggling images from real estate listings all over the world. I include for you, a sampling:

Lovely Listing - Escape from Hamster Hoosgow

Not Very Merry Go Round

August 18th, 2009

not so merry go round

Found By: Catherine B in Seattle

any questions call – eight foot round

A phrase you just don’t hear very often – Merry Go Round of the Damned.

As we speak, I’m pretty sure somebody in the prop department working on one of the 200-or-so teen vampire movies being rushed into production is headed to Seattle to pick this up.

It will emphasize the vampire’s ironic dilemma – a decrepit soul in the body of a fresh-faced young model – with another irony – a childhood plaything, rusted and ruined. “I just want to cavort again, carefree, but oh, what has become of me?” [vampire looks off in the distance, camera catches glint off left fang]. I see this merry go round taking a few Teen Choice awards next year.

Don’t give this away, Dreamworks will pay you bank.

This Listing is so freakin’ Epic I had to post it as is. – Junktown Jerky Vendor

For a crime they didn’t commit.

Found by: Horselover Phat in Portland. The Original Listing(while it lasts.)

These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Pacific Northwest underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire…  The A Team.

1979 Ford Econoline, straight six. $999 runs great, leaks auto tranny fluid so you need to add it every now and then. Roll harder than any motherfucker on the street -includes sticker ready to be applied by the new owner.

Gerber Cereal For Infants

May 12th, 2009

INAD - expired cereal
Found On: Bay Area Craigslist

One expired on Sept 08 the other Nov 08. But they still have the cellophane on them.

Sweet, they still have the cellophane on them. Something for the baby to play with after we’ve fed him long-expired food.

Red Couch

May 11th, 2009

inad - supernatural couch
Found On: Bay Area Craigslist

The post describes this as a couch, but it could just as easily have said “Free Bigfoot” or “Free Loch Ness Monster.”

It’s hard to get a good shot of a frightened couch, as it flees into the night.

Boat

May 8th, 2009

inad - Racing Boat
Found On: Bay Area Craigslist

Perfect for boat races!

Obviously, this will need a part or two (or 334) before it’s perfect for anything, but that aside, what about this semi-boat makes it seem especially race-worthy? If anything, it looks like a pretty non-hydrodynamic example of boatdom. Why is it any more perfect for a boat race than, say, this motorcycle frame is for motorcycle races?

Or this trashcan is for trashcan races?

inad - classy cabover camper
Found On: Bay Area Craigslist

Honey, let’s go camping! By “camping,” I mean admitting that we have failed in every possible way, and that we deserve only the worst of everything.

Open Fridge

May 4th, 2009

inad - open fridge "As Is"
Found On: Bay Area Craigslist

NO WARRANTY. AS IS. NO DELIVERY.

As is? Do you promise? Because if I show up for this behemoth and find that bottle of white zin and collection of off-brand energy drinks are gone, my afternoon plans will be shot in the ass.
